    Ole and Lena...

    Ole and Lena jokes are hugely popular in my neck of the woods. For those of you who live in rural or warmer climates, this wouldn't be an issue, but many of us in frostier climates are required to park our cars on even and odd numbered sides of the streets according to the date after midnight. This way the snowplows can access at least one side of a street when clearing snow.

    Ole and Lena were getting up in years, and were having difficulties keeping things up on the farm, so they decided to move into town.

    Every evening, Ole watched the six o'clock news, and waited for the weather updates in particular. One evening as he was watching the news, the weather man came on and reported "Tonight there will be a winter storm. Please park your cars on the 'odd' numbered side of the street tonight." Ole got up, went out, and moved his car to the odd numbered side of the street.

    A couple of nights later, when Ole was watching the news, the weather man came on again and said "Tonight there will be another winter storm...please remember to park your cars on the even numbered side of the street." Ole dutifully got up, went out, and parked his car on the even numbered side of the street.

    A few nights later, Ole was watching the news...the weather man came on, reported that there would be a winter storm, but neglected to mention which side of the street to park on. Nervously, he stayed up for the ten o'clock news. Again, the weather man reported that there would be a winter storm, but failed once more to mention which side of the street residents should park on. Ole was really sweating, now! He went up to Lena, wringing his hands, and said "Lena! Da wedder-man says dere's gonna be a vinter storm tonight, but he didn't say vhich side of the street to park on!!" Lena looked at Ole and replied "Oh, Ole...can't you yust park da car in da garage tonight?!!"

    Yah...I know it's bad! :H
